Being smart also means that women can see through men’s insecurities and if they’re the kind of people who are weak but pretend to be strong and dominating especially when they’re threatened by the female’s strength and intelligence. For example, if they said something wrong and were corrected they don’t handle it well. Or they try to puff themselves up when their insecurities get triggered so they start to be rude. It’s easy for a smart woman to see through all of their BS and pull away from them. I’m in my late 20’s and I had to endure a lot of issues and being observant I started to see through their facade and lose interest. It’s hard to think of partnership after everything. I am happy where I am at the current time.
I thin it‘s the same for men as well. I really just wanna find a women that suits me in terms of living an intellectual life together and with the women going on in the internet and around me, I just asked myself if there are any intellectual women so I searched it on TH-cam and here I am 😂

In Graduate School, I had to take a bunch of exams and my abstract intelligence test result was 99%, while my WG Critical Thinking test result was 97% - I took both tests without sleep the night before or breakfast that morning, so I was stunned by the results. I was also told that I scored the highest in my class. My IQ score came back at 151, with a few bands coming in at 160+. Many years later, I was made to take a test of spatial Intelligence and logic, and the psychologist told me that I beat a group of 13 engineers, and so they asked me if I would accept an interview with a panel of 13 engineers and I said yes. So following the logic of Dr. Peterson, I should have had a very hard time finding a mate. I'm in my 40s, and no man has ever asked me out on a date. So I stand in as a positive example of his thesis. Often times, I just smile and nod at men who approach me, and I know they're either lying or exaggerating things, but I pretend to believe them. Or they find out that I am completely sexually abstinent, and they decide I'm not worth dating after all, so they end the conversation. One time, a four-time divorced man told me that I was in a category called "extremely difficult" because he said I was intelligent, beautiful and virtuous, but he made a pitch for himself anyway. But why would I even tolerate a man who had been divorced 4 times? He is the common denominator in all those failed relationships.
True. I went to see his talk here in Portugal in September. It's not particularly cheap, but I really encourage it if you haven't gone to one. It's worth it.
I think being smart can actually limit the opportunity for reproduction because you're simultaneously less agreeable yourself and more selective of others. On the flip side, the ability to find a high value mate becomes of higher likelihood.
@@lslithas24 Yes, but I was referring to reproduction. Women decide who gets born and men are the "stock" from which they choose. I'm saying that being a smart man can result in less likelihood of your reproducing. Being a smart woman has little hindrance for a reproduction as regardless of how high/low she thinks of a potential mate, when she decides to get pregnant, there will be a line out the door. Whereas smart men must intelligently parse out which women are worth taking on the burden of responsibility for. Basically, men have to take advantage of a timely advantageous opportunity whereas women's opportunity for reproduction is constant.
@@brahemedays2914 I see your argument but educated women are more likely to use contraceptives and get abortions. Especially women with multiple degrees(i.e. masters + PHD). Plus, they become far more selective because of hypergamy. Educated men aren't as selective - they are not hypergamous - thus, they marry down socio-economically. Thus, they have more options. Moreover, women have less time to choose a mate because of their biological clock. Men don't have the same time contraint.
You’ll die by yourself on your death bed with no one to comfort you, sounds so sad. The dumb woman with the dumb man, I bet she has a better time than you…Good luck with being single tho, let’s see how that works out for you in the end
Did you make sacrifices in your life to prioritise living the way you want -perhaps momentarily- instead of marrying? If so, do you have regrets about it?
@@Lightnings I'm not sure what sacrifices I have made. Perhaps stability and security in a variety of ways. Good question. I'll admit I'm not sure 100% what you are asking. I don't have any regrets about it really.
@@JazzyB9481 Not deliberately. Thanks for the answer Lauren. Primarily I meant focusing on career instead of pursuing more social interaction, a potential long-term mate. But that's not all I had in mind. Were you a bit selfish perhaps or just uninterested/never dared to take the step into marriage? People differ vastly in how open they are to such a big change and I understand those who are scared off by hitting the nail on the head to stay with a partner for the rest of their lives. Which is hands down the whole goal of marriage - bringing some benefits with it though, horribly as it sounds at first. English is not my first language, excuse me.
Some women who are reasonable and intelligent just want to find a partner who has a similar outlook in terms of quality of life, understands that relationships require maintenance which means willingness to continually communicate, re-evualate values when needed and confront issues together. Its really hard to find men who are compatible. Women just dont want to settle when it implicates their quality of life. Its not about whether the man is smarter or richer.
I think it isn’t about being intelligent ….. I know many women who understand how easier life is to rely on someone else -- so they start thinking how to find a partner and live with their assistance. Whereas women who are willing to experience life more and see the capacity in themselves to do those , don’t focus on finding men instead focus on experiencing their life and exploring new things like new places new works new strangers etc. So actually women who focus on finding partner are politically intelligent! It is opposite , sad but true and real life lesson
@@Traumatised311 :) yup. there isnt a two category ppl only. all sorts. Many women put up with abuse (as you said) because ironiucally they r smart knowing it is easier and less costly to live with someone else.
My IQ is 130. I'm 22. I dated a guy with an IQ of 150 and one with an IQ of 145... Unfortunately I haven't found the one yet. I really want to marry a psychologist
Well I think as a men being intellectual has somehow the same effects on relationships with women because there are BS women as well as BS men as being honest. So I want don‘t necessarily want to find a sexy women, but rather a women I can share my joy*s and thoughts with and get to know her thoughts and ideas as well. I want to find the „right“ relationship for a lifetime, optimally 😄
A beautiful theory that needs to be knowledged , being 30 years of age , very successful , multilingual working in a patriarchal environment and single , I just can't bury the idea of dating a guy who is less smarter than me ( and it has nothing to do with him having money or us being superficial , as a matter of fact I personally follow minimalism into my lifestyle .furthermore , in all fairness this theory approves the consciousness awareness of a women with a high IQ/EI ) and as the professor mentioned , we women operate differently than a man do toward relationships , a women as discussed look into things through the society ladder in a hierarchy level ..and I guess the only point that wasn't clarified . .it's not about what he posses .. its all about what he presents through 🥰 his intellectual mind ... It becomes a key component to maintain a healthy relationship and unfortunately that's what he was trying to explain ..this eliminates 95%of not finding the ideal partner .. Note: proposed from many rich men ( usually inherited ) ..trust me .. having money doesn't mean a person is smart or usefully successful . Therefore , whoever asked about a smart women would seek stability and security through a relationship ..actually a smart women would usually be secured and she doesn't need that part to be covered . From my experience , You cant imagine how many times I tried to date a less smarter guy ( IQorEI) ( turns into a student /teacher dynamic ).. but it would always lead to failure ..intimidation and status is the number one fear that would make them not to pursue things further ( facts stated by them) .

I have been married twice, the first a Veterinary Surgeon with a high IQ, but she was really stupid in terms of common sense, but because she believed she was inteligent she rejected any criticism and basically learned nothing in 20 years. My second and current wife left school at 12, she would probably get an IQ score below 100, but with huge amount of "useful inteligence". My last IQ reading was 161 and I am an engineer (old school - Tech College), I learn a lot from my wife. So the notion that IQ is the perfect test is not something I find conclusive.

I do not believe that IQ alone predicts success or leads to higher income, There are other factors at play that determine success in life, including Emotional Intelligence. I had read that emotional intelligence plays even a greater role in success than IQ. There are many people who have high IQs, and are MENSA members, whom just work ordinary jobs. MENSA is also known as the "Organization for under-achieving people with high IQs.
Debra Wehrly IQ is the single greatest predictor of success in life. That doesn’t mean that it alone predicts success. It's just the best single indicator we have atm. Countless studies and statistical models have backed it up. I've read extensively about EQ (Emotional Intelligence) and it is valuable but still being measured as a long term indicator of success. Still if you are born with middle range or lower IQ it doesn't mean you are barred from success. Hard work and persistence will you get 95% of the way in most situations in Life. Some high IQ people out there are really lazy or don't apply their skills and therefore never reach success.
@@theyungjerks1779 That was unnecessarily rude but okay. At no point did I even contradict you, I was simply trying to emphasise the fact that there is still a lot of mystery behind what is required for success.

Can anyone reference the study/paper he is referring that mentions that women prefer mates with higher intelligence ? Or one that mentions women with higher intelligence find it harder to find a mate ?
Women will always prefer up or equal. But for a woman with average intelligence "higher intelligence" would be like an IQ of 105-110. For a woman with a high IQ, she will always prefer higher IQ males (altough there are other criterias of selection), but she also will be lucid about the fact that same IQ is still OK (refering to the difficulty to find very high IQ males)
What the hell would they talk about or learn about together or explore the gd world about then.. together? You don’t need random mental health journal references to understand that connecting with another human is multifaceted. It’s about the operation of similar mindsets. You asking this is why most couples sit on their phones while out at dinner, saying nothing- yet eavesdropping on the lively, conversational group next to them. Smart people can’t carry on a rapport with those who have nothing to say back. It’s just compatibility. They’re single more because they’re also more engaged mentally and passionately with their interests, studies, businesses, and utilization of their brains - instead of submitting to average to win a mate. Smart women do not have to default to settle. Because they’re not worried about their purpose existing within or joined with another.
I've two brothers one 50 the other 56 also never married doubt any of us ever will either. I don't see the gender thing as an issue it's not like none of us have ever had offers or opportunities either.
I can tell it has to be part of his series on “Personality and its Transformations”. And as he is talking about Intelligence, it must be one of the lectures on trait openness. I watched the series a while ago, but I believe there were two of them. You can probably tell which one it is by “ looking at his suit or some elements of the room :) However, I highly recommend watching the whole series. It’s definitely worth the effort. Have a great day :)
Here in Japan, only 60% can go to universities, and most (or 99% of the)lecturers are closed. I hope many lectures in japan will be opened so that not very intelligent person can learn. I was amazed to know that Sandel’s orJPB’s lectures can be seen on TH-cam.
You might be an exception to the rule because more often than not, it definitely doesn't go both ways. Plenty of smart men do not prioritize intellectual capacities in their partner whatsoever, whereas intelligent women certainly do but that is quite self-explanatory due to women being generally much more selective (as you would be too if an encounter with the opposite sex would potentially leave you pregnant).
She wants the smart one, he wants the pretty and fertile one. Yet, when he says he wants the pretty and fertile, people say he's discriminating. Is she not?
I rarely hear people say "it's discrimination when men desire physical attractiveness in women", it's just not discrimination at all, plus women do it with physical attractiveness too, maybe on average is a little less important to them, but it does matter.
My IQ is 135... it's been a challenge to find someone entertaining enough to be attractive to me. My looks have helped with keeping options open but to that extent has complicated things in a different way. My looks have made my mates insecure and then when I have complaints because of my IQ it seems more cutting to them because it's not arbitrary little dumb things.
Jordan Peterson was referring to metacognition when he said "the thinking about how you would think about how you would move" ... right?? If I've not mistaken metacognition receives information from the prefrontal cortex.
The question that comes to my mind here though, are you really _that_ needy to get laid - instead of looking for a real long-term mate? Well, men usually don't want this sort of woman as a partner. Real men. Be yourself.
Once my mother said you definitely do a sin in your after life as a result you born as a woman sometimes I think why the hell I just born in this planet+as a woman 😵😵❔❔
I love intelligent women! Sure, I like butts and boobs just as much as any other guy, but there's more to a relationship than sex and you're going to get very bored talking to your partner if they're dumb.
most men out and about have lower iq than the average women out of about and that's the issue . Its something that he wont address as he'll get banned and youtube removes such comments.

Being smart doesn't make you believe you are smart or think you are smart. It only make you humble but think properly. If some one thinks he is smart then that's arrogance and ego he has. Its not smartness because he already placed a priority for himself above others
I don't think this man knows how women think especially the women looking for smarter men than themselves part and illiminating the ones less smart than themselves argument but as a woman I have some hypothesis about how this idea came about I think us women like to make our partners feel better about their abilities than they actually are sometimes making ourselves look less competent unfortunately but I think smart people are impressive so I don't understand why it would be a minus for anyone in dating it seems absurd to me
I have an IQ of 196 (male) finding an acceptable female has been impossible, my most recent partner had an IQ of 180 & yet her lack of capacity was fundamentally disappointing.
There is a difference between being smart and being someone who always have to have the last word in the discussion. A lot of intelligent women somehow feel the need to prove themselves, thus falling in the second category. It becomes very tiring to deal with such a person on a daily basis.
@@otakuneet5467 Honestly, just don't try to always have the last word and looking for vindication that people have to acknowledge that you have 'know-how". It doesn't mean that you must play dumb, but people should see in your actions what you are capable off instead of hearing it from you. Apart from the fact that a lot of women who always have to prove themselves are actually insecure, there is just no need for that if you are part of a team. Actions are more important than words (which is also applicable to men) which is why we have two hands, two feet, two hands, two ears, two eyes but only one mouth😆
It’s not that IQ bothers men, it’s the way these women act that gets to us. If she’s smart yet flexible and you can cooperate and have fun with her, it doesn’t matter. But usually higher IQ women carry and talk differently that are a turn off to a lot of men, not because we’re intimidated rather… They remind us of our mothers :/ A person to seek counsel and guidance from, respectable, and a guiding type figure. Not really a romantic perspective that you would get into a relationship with.
When does an expert exceed his limits? When does an amateur thinker cross over to a field into which he is not longer an expert? How do we know? When do we turn away from certainty? When is it granted? I do believe that Peterson made a few accurate points. Many ones, indeed. But, in all kindheartedness, Mr Peterson, please stick to your subject.
Cool Beans ...Statistically speaking, intelligent people do stay single longer. That is just a fact for intelligent men and women on average. That doesn’t mean they SHOULD stay single longer. Or that he advises it.
I think women don't want to be mothers to a grown man. It's not exciting, no matter what the woman's IQ is. Women usually protect children, and men protect the whole family. Stereotype? Yes. But, I think, this is the explanation of such an unequal situation.
It has to due with being vulnerable. Women are more vulnerable than men are not just physically but mentally as well. Let me explain women don’t know how to disconnect their emotions from one thing to the next. Men have the ability to mentally go into the nothing box and not be bothered women don’t have that ability; our minds are going constantly and this can prevent us sometimes from seeing things objectively. Plus, if we are exposed to negative emotions it takes us a long time to get over it and this can impact our decision making; whereas men can just disconnect from it more easily than women can and a few studies have shown this. So if you were to place a man in difficult and vulnerable positions, it would not impact him as much compared to a woman as she would take the vulnerability to heart and it would impact her in all aspects of her life and it would take a hit to her self esteem and her morality. Men tend to just categorize their emotions so it does not impact everyday aspects of their life. That is to say it does impact them but they have better methods to being able to due with it better because of how their mind is wired. So many studies have shown that women use a huge amount of their brains to solve a problem and men only use a very small amount and it does not connect to the emotional parts of the brain as much as a woman does.
Since I cannot copy and paste a website in the comments sections because you tube will think it is spam I copied and pasted an article explaining that women are more likely to have depression due to overthinking and not having a lot of serotonin. “7 Differences Between Male and Female Brains September 22, 2021 Male and Female Brains When actor Daniel Sharman (Teen Wolf, The Originals, Medici: The Magnificent) and music producer Christian “Leggy” Langdon visited Dr. Daniel Amen as part of the Scan My Brain series, they had a lot of questions. They wanted to find out what brain scans could reveal about Sharman’s feelings of depression and Langdon’s anxiety. The co-hosts of The 2 Lads Podcast, which explores what it means today to be men, had one other burning question for Dr. Amen: “Do you see a difference between the female brain and the male brain.” The short answer is YES. In one of the largest functional brain imaging studies ever, Amen Clinics compared the brain SPECT scans of 46,034 female and male brains. SPECT is a brain imaging technology that looks at blood flow and activity patterns. This study, which appeared in the Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease, revealed fascinating differences between the female and male brains. In one of the largest functional brain imaging studies ever, Amen Clinics compared the brain SPECT scans of 46,034 female and male brains, and it revealed fascinating differences between the sexes. Click To Tweet Here are 7 of the most important gender-based brain differences you need to know. A word of caution: Overall, there are significant brain differences between the sexes that can be measured in a laboratory, seen on a brain scan, and observed in our everyday lives. However, not all women are the same, nor are all men the same. And there is still much research to be done to gain a better understanding of the brains of nonbinary and transgender individuals. What is clear is that even when we succeed at the same task, we may call on different strengths and areas of the brain to do it. 7 UNIQUE TRAITS OF FEMALE AND MALE BRAINS 1. Female brains are busier. For the 2017 brain imaging study at Amen Clinics, the team analyzed 80 areas of the brain. In 70 of those regions, female brains showed significantly more activity than male brains. Overall, women have much busier brains compared with men. In problem-solving, women tend to harness several areas of the brain while men rely on a more localized effort. 2. The prefrontal cortex is “sleepier” in men. According to the study findings, men tend to have less activity in the PFC compared with women. The PFC is involved with planning, judgment, empathy, and impulse control. This can make men more likely to take risks, which can then make them more vulnerable to head injuries that can further decrease activity in this brain area. Hearing about the differences in the PFC activity prompted record producer Langdon to say, “We’re kind of almost fighting different battles as men and women in the world. We’ve got a different set of cards that we’re starting from.” 3. The brain’s emotional centers are more active in women. In the Amen Clinics study, female brains showed higher activity levels in the limbic system or emotional system. Situated beneath the cortex, this part of the brain colors our emotions and is involved with bonding, nesting, and emotions. This may explain why women are the primary caretakers of children and the elderly. Upon learning about the limbic brain differences in the Scan My Brain episode, Langdon says, “So it’s almost like as men, we have to work a bit harder to get access to some of those things that come a bit more naturally to women and probably vice versa.” Higher activity here is also associated with an increased risk of depression and anxiety. 4. The anterior cingulate gyrus works harder in women. Within the brain’s frontal lobes is an area called the ACG. Known as the brain’s gear shifter, it helps you shift attention and recognize errors. Higher activity in the ACG increases the tendency to get stuck on negative thoughts or negative behaviors and to see what is wrong rather than what is right. It is also one of the brain’s worry centers. More activity here translates into more worries. Of course, this doesn’t mean that men don’t worry or see problems. But men and women tend to worry differently. 5. Visual and coordination centers work harder in men. These areas of the brain are more active in men and may explain why men tend to be more adept at judging distances and making a beeline to where they parked the car. 6. Women’s intuition is real. Other brain imaging research reveals that females have larger areas in the brain dedicated to tracking gut feelings, specifically areas deep in the frontal lobes called the insula and ACG. The female brain is generally quicker at assessing the thoughts of others based on limited information, gut feelings, and hunches. 7. Serotonin systems work differently in men and women. Production of the neurotransmitter serotonin is 52% higher in men than in women, according to a foundational brain imaging study in PNAS. A calming neurotransmitter, serotonin plays a role in mood, sleep, pain, and other issues. At Amen Clinics, low serotonin levels are often seen in people with depression, anxiety, pain syndromes, and obsessive worrying.”

Moreover, women have less time to choose a mate because of their biological clock. Men don't have the same time contraint.
@@lslithas24 Thanks, good point

I can’t believe I’m listening to this man. I guess he’s not wrong about EVERYTHING 😂
6 years single because of I’m smart ?? 😂
Such a kind comforting
You’ll die by yourself on your death bed with no one to comfort you, sounds so sad. The dumb woman with the dumb man, I bet she has a better time than you…Good luck with being single tho, let’s see how that works out for you in the end
Then marry a guy with less brains than you
i was single coz i was shy and insecure af
I have a verbal IQ of 143. Unmarried at 35 and will likely stay that way.
Did you make sacrifices in your life to prioritise living the way you want -perhaps momentarily- instead of marrying?
If so, do you have regrets about it?
@@Lightnings I'm not sure what sacrifices I have made. Perhaps stability and security in a variety of ways. Good question. I'll admit I'm not sure 100% what you are asking. I don't have any regrets about it really.
@@Lightnings how did you do the strike through text?
You wanna date me 👀
@@JazzyB9481 Not deliberately.
Thanks for the answer Lauren.
Primarily I meant focusing on career instead of pursuing more social interaction, a potential long-term mate. But that's not all I had in mind.
Were you a bit selfish perhaps or just uninterested/never dared to take the step into marriage? People differ vastly in how open they are to such a big change and I understand those who are scared off by hitting the nail on the head to stay with a partner for the rest of their lives. Which is hands down the whole goal of marriage - bringing some benefits with it though, horribly as it sounds at first.
English is not my first language, excuse me.
Women don't go down the social Ladder
Some women who are reasonable and intelligent just want to find a partner who has a similar outlook in terms of quality of life, understands that relationships require maintenance which means willingness to continually communicate, re-evualate values when needed and confront issues together. Its really hard to find men who are compatible. Women just dont want to settle when it implicates their quality of life. Its not about whether the man is smarter or richer.
I like an intelligent woman
Hello then😅
Truly, I'll never get married again.
Now I'm interested in you😮😂
depends on how you define intelligence... some measure it solely by academic results
I have dated the stupidest pilot and a doctor. Their academic intelligence has nothing to do with their IQ. They both were dumb.
Academic results and approach of practicality in real life are two different vast measures
I measure it by how fast you learn and how erudite you are.
I think it isn’t about being intelligent ….. I know many women who understand how easier life is to rely on someone else -- so they start thinking how to find a partner and live with their assistance. Whereas women who are willing to experience life more and see the capacity in themselves to do those , don’t focus on finding men instead focus on experiencing their life and exploring new things like new places new works new strangers etc. So actually women who focus on finding partner are politically intelligent! It is opposite , sad but true and real life lesson
Well said.

@@Traumatised311 :) yup. there isnt a two category ppl only. all sorts. Many women put up with abuse (as you said) because ironiucally they r smart knowing it is easier and less costly to live with someone else.

Well I think as a men being intellectual has somehow the same effects on relationships with women because there are BS women as well as BS men as being honest. So I want don‘t necessarily want to find a sexy women, but rather a women I can share my joy*s and thoughts with and get to know her thoughts and ideas as well. I want to find the „right“ relationship for a lifetime, optimally 😄
A beautiful theory that needs to be knowledged , being 30 years of age , very successful , multilingual working in a patriarchal environment and single , I just can't bury the idea of dating a guy who is less smarter than me ( and it has nothing to do with him having money or us being superficial , as a matter of fact I personally follow minimalism into my lifestyle .furthermore , in all fairness this theory approves the consciousness awareness of a women with a high IQ/EI ) and as the professor mentioned , we women operate differently than a man do toward relationships , a women as discussed look into things through the society ladder in a hierarchy level ..and I guess the only point that wasn't clarified . .it's not about what he posses .. its all about what he presents through 🥰
his intellectual mind ...
It becomes a key component to maintain a healthy relationship and unfortunately that's what he was trying to explain ..this eliminates 95%of not finding the ideal partner ..
Note: proposed from many rich men ( usually inherited ) ..trust me .. having money doesn't mean a person is smart or usefully successful .
Therefore , whoever asked about a smart women would seek stability and security through a relationship ..actually a smart women would usually be secured and she doesn't need that part to be covered .
From my experience , You cant imagine how many times I tried to date a less smarter guy ( IQorEI) ( turns into a student /teacher dynamic ).. but it would always lead to failure ..intimidation and status is the number one fear that would make them not to pursue things further ( facts stated by them) .

I have been married twice, the first a Veterinary Surgeon with a high IQ, but she was really stupid in terms of common sense, but because she believed she was inteligent she rejected any criticism and basically learned nothing in 20 years. My second and current wife left school at 12, she would probably get an IQ score below 100, but with huge amount of "useful inteligence". My last IQ reading was 161 and I am an engineer (old school - Tech College), I learn a lot from my wife. So the notion that IQ is the perfect test is not something I find conclusive.
ok, so what about your kids' IQ, wouldn't it be low because of your second wife 's IQ ?
@@animemonogatari9353 I dont have kids with my second wife. She has 2 and they are fine, hard working and sensible.

Women who are single live longer than married women. Sounds smart to me LOL
Who you are attracted to isn't a choice. Love isn't a choice. It isn't a question of intelligence but rather it seems to be an innate desire outside of your control. Why marry a man you're not attracted to?
@TH-camInsistInBanningPeople if that's true, good for them! Can you please send me the research you are citing? I can't find anything about that. Most of the studies I have read just say that single women live longer than married women and married men live longer than single men.

I do not believe that IQ alone predicts success or leads to higher income, There are other factors at play that determine success in life, including Emotional Intelligence. I had read that emotional intelligence plays even a greater role in success than IQ. There are many people who have high IQs, and are MENSA members, whom just work ordinary jobs. MENSA is also known as the "Organization for under-achieving people with high IQs.
Debra Wehrly IQ is the single greatest predictor of success in life. That doesn’t mean that it alone predicts success. It's just the best single indicator we have atm. Countless studies and statistical models have backed it up. I've read extensively about EQ (Emotional Intelligence) and it is valuable but still being measured as a long term indicator of success. Still if you are born with middle range or lower IQ it doesn't mean you are barred from success. Hard work and persistence will you get 95% of the way in most situations in Life. Some high IQ people out there are really lazy or don't apply their skills and therefore never reach success.
It still only predicts 15%
@@IdowuEsther that isn't small. Not something easily ignored
@@theyungjerks1779 That was unnecessarily rude but okay. At no point did I even contradict you, I was simply trying to emphasise the fact that there is still a lot of mystery behind what is required for success.

“Leh-GOHs”
I became obsessed with that too
Can anyone reference the study/paper he is referring that mentions that women prefer mates with higher intelligence ? Or one that mentions women with higher intelligence find it harder to find a mate ?
Women will always prefer up or equal. But for a woman with average intelligence "higher intelligence" would be like an IQ of 105-110. For a woman with a high IQ, she will always prefer higher IQ males (altough there are other criterias of selection), but she also will be lucid about the fact that same IQ is still OK (refering to the difficulty to find very high IQ males)
What the hell would they talk about or learn about together or explore the gd world about then.. together? You don’t need random mental health journal references to understand that connecting with another human is multifaceted. It’s about the operation of similar mindsets. You asking this is why most couples sit on their phones while out at dinner, saying nothing- yet eavesdropping on the lively, conversational group next to them. Smart people can’t carry on a rapport with those who have nothing to say back. It’s just compatibility. They’re single more because they’re also more engaged mentally and passionately with their interests, studies, businesses, and utilization of their brains - instead of submitting to average to win a mate. Smart women do not have to default to settle. Because they’re not worried about their purpose existing within or joined with another.
Well over 40 some people get set in their ways too some women don't care if you call them an old maid or something.
I've two brothers one 50 the other 56 also never married doubt any of us ever will either. I don't see the gender thing as an issue it's not like none of us have ever had offers or opportunities either.
I hardly agree with most of the things he says, but in this instance I am bound to agree.
So it really is a smarter choice to not marry lol. Jkjk

Here in Japan, only 60% can go to universities, and most (or 99% of the)lecturers are closed. I hope many lectures in japan will be opened so that not very intelligent person can learn. I was amazed to know that Sandel’s orJPB’s lectures can be seen on TH-cam.
As man I catch these same things with women. So I guess it goes both ways.
You might be an exception to the rule because more often than not, it definitely doesn't go both ways.
Plenty of smart men do not prioritize intellectual capacities in their partner whatsoever, whereas intelligent women certainly do but that is quite self-explanatory due to women being generally much more selective (as you would be too if an encounter with the opposite sex would potentially leave you pregnant).
You got the name of your channel correct for sure

She wants the smart one, he wants the pretty and fertile one. Yet, when he says he wants the pretty and fertile, people say he's discriminating. Is she not?
well generally speaking people are indifferent to discrimination based on intelligence.
It's not discrimination because looks do matter.
no
I rarely hear people say "it's discrimination when men desire physical attractiveness in women", it's just not discrimination at all, plus women do it with physical attractiveness too, maybe on average is a little less important to them, but it does matter.
@@mephistopheles9644 what a great point
Anyone know of a paper that talks about the evolutionary arms race between human males and females that he mentions? I can't seem to find anything
My IQ is 135... it's been a challenge to find someone entertaining enough to be attractive to me.
My looks have helped with keeping options open but to that extent has complicated things in a different way. My looks have made my mates insecure and then when I have complaints because of my IQ it seems more cutting to them because it's not arbitrary little dumb things.
Jordan Peterson was referring to metacognition when he said "the thinking about how you would think about how you would move" ... right?? If I've not mistaken metacognition receives information from the prefrontal cortex.

Escape the Matrix!
We need both sides!
Being smart doesn't make you believe you are smart or think you are smart. It only make you humble but think properly. If some one thinks he is smart then that's arrogance and ego he has. Its not smartness because he already placed a priority for himself above others
This comment was dumb and you are dumb bro sorry
I don't think this man knows how women think especially the women looking for smarter men than themselves part and illiminating the ones less smart than themselves argument but as a woman I have some hypothesis about how this idea came about I think us women like to make our partners feel better about their abilities than they actually are sometimes making ourselves look less competent unfortunately but I think smart people are impressive so I don't understand why it would be a minus for anyone in dating it seems absurd to me
Never drop your qualities for a useless man.
There is one advantage to being a smart woman. You can walk freely on the street at night, because you are scary for a maniac.
You ain't never met a real "maniac". You obviously lack experience "smart w0man".

How the fuck his technical language can be comprehended?
So , , if ur smart , umm , play dumb??
There is a difference between being smart and being someone who always have to have the last word in the discussion. A lot of intelligent women somehow feel the need to prove themselves, thus falling in the second category. It becomes very tiring to deal with such a person on a daily basis.
@@otakuneet5467 Honestly, just don't try to always have the last word and looking for vindication that people have to acknowledge that you have 'know-how". It doesn't mean that you must play dumb, but people should see in your actions what you are capable off instead of hearing it from you. Apart from the fact that a lot of women who always have to prove themselves are actually insecure, there is just no need for that if you are part of a team. Actions are more important than words (which is also applicable to men) which is why we have two hands, two feet, two hands, two ears, two eyes but only one mouth😆
I have had to do this in my past relationships
@@NargisKhan-jw2lz sucks, isn't it?
It’s not that IQ bothers men, it’s the way these women act that gets to us.
If she’s smart yet flexible and you can cooperate and have fun with her, it doesn’t matter.
But usually higher IQ women carry and talk differently that are a turn off to a lot of men, not because we’re intimidated rather…
They remind us of our mothers :/
A person to seek counsel and guidance from, respectable, and a guiding type figure.
Not really a romantic perspective that you would get into a relationship with.
🤣🤣🤣
did you even watch the video? it’s because women don’t tend to be willing to “marry down”.
Where's the full lecture?
this is somewhat depressing.
When does an expert exceed his limits? When does an amateur thinker cross over to a field into which he is not longer an expert? How do we know? When do we turn away from certainty? When is it granted? I do believe that Peterson made a few accurate points. Many ones, indeed. But, in all kindheartedness, Mr Peterson, please stick to your subject.
Cool Beans ...Statistically speaking, intelligent people do stay single longer. That is just a fact for intelligent men and women on average. That doesn’t mean they SHOULD stay single longer. Or that he advises it.
So he wasn’t wrong.
130 is about 1/50. A little more precision
Le-goes 🤭
So women would rather be alone than with a man she has to help. Men don't mind helping women. But women don't want to be the leader. Why?
I think women don't want to be mothers to a grown man. It's not exciting, no matter what the woman's IQ is. Women usually protect children, and men protect the whole family. Stereotype? Yes. But, I think, this is the explanation of such an unequal situation.
It has to due with being vulnerable. Women are more vulnerable than men are not just physically but mentally as well. Let me explain women don’t know how to disconnect their emotions from one thing to the next.
Men have the ability to mentally go into the nothing box and not be bothered women don’t have that ability; our minds are going constantly and this can prevent us sometimes from seeing things objectively. Plus, if we are exposed to negative emotions it takes us a long time to get over it and this can impact our decision making; whereas men can just disconnect from it more easily than women can and a few studies have shown this. So if you were to place a man in difficult and vulnerable positions, it would not impact him as much compared to a woman as she would take the vulnerability to heart and it would impact her in all aspects of her life and it would take a hit to her self esteem and her morality. Men tend to just categorize their emotions so it does not impact everyday aspects of their life. That is to say it does impact them but they have better methods to being able to due with it better because of how their mind is wired. So many studies have shown that women use a huge amount of their brains to solve a problem and men only use a very small amount and it does not connect to the emotional parts of the brain as much as a woman does.
Since I cannot copy and paste a website in the comments sections because you tube will think it is spam I copied and pasted an article explaining that women are more likely to have depression due to overthinking and not having a lot of serotonin.
“7 Differences Between Male and Female Brains
September 22, 2021
Male and Female Brains
When actor Daniel Sharman (Teen Wolf, The Originals, Medici: The Magnificent) and music producer Christian “Leggy” Langdon visited Dr. Daniel Amen as part of the Scan My Brain series, they had a lot of questions. They wanted to find out what brain scans could reveal about Sharman’s feelings of depression and Langdon’s anxiety. The co-hosts of The 2 Lads Podcast, which explores what it means today to be men, had one other burning question for Dr. Amen: “Do you see a difference between the female brain and the male brain.”
The short answer is YES.
In one of the largest functional brain imaging studies ever, Amen Clinics compared the brain SPECT scans of 46,034 female and male brains. SPECT is a brain imaging technology that looks at blood flow and activity patterns. This study, which appeared in the Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease, revealed fascinating differences between the female and male brains.
In one of the largest functional brain imaging studies ever, Amen Clinics compared the brain SPECT scans of 46,034 female and male brains, and it revealed fascinating differences between the sexes. Click To Tweet
Here are 7 of the most important gender-based brain differences you need to know.
A word of caution: Overall, there are significant brain differences between the sexes that can be measured in a laboratory, seen on a brain scan, and observed in our everyday lives. However, not all women are the same, nor are all men the same. And there is still much research to be done to gain a better understanding of the brains of nonbinary and transgender individuals. What is clear is that even when we succeed at the same task, we may call on different strengths and areas of the brain to do it.
7 UNIQUE TRAITS OF FEMALE AND MALE BRAINS
1. Female brains are busier.
For the 2017 brain imaging study at Amen Clinics, the team analyzed 80 areas of the brain. In 70 of those regions, female brains showed significantly more activity than male brains. Overall, women have much busier brains compared with men. In problem-solving, women tend to harness several areas of the brain while men rely on a more localized effort.
2. The prefrontal cortex is “sleepier” in men.
According to the study findings, men tend to have less activity in the PFC compared with women. The PFC is involved with planning, judgment, empathy, and impulse control. This can make men more likely to take risks, which can then make them more vulnerable to head injuries that can further decrease activity in this brain area. Hearing about the differences in the PFC activity prompted record producer Langdon to say, “We’re kind of almost fighting different battles as men and women in the world. We’ve got a different set of cards that we’re starting from.”
3. The brain’s emotional centers are more active in women.
In the Amen Clinics study, female brains showed higher activity levels in the limbic system or emotional system. Situated beneath the cortex, this part of the brain colors our emotions and is involved with bonding, nesting, and emotions. This may explain why women are the primary caretakers of children and the elderly. Upon learning about the limbic brain differences in the Scan My Brain episode, Langdon says, “So it’s almost like as men, we have to work a bit harder to get access to some of those things that come a bit more naturally to women and probably vice versa.” Higher activity here is also associated with an increased risk of depression and anxiety.
4. The anterior cingulate gyrus works harder in women.
Within the brain’s frontal lobes is an area called the ACG. Known as the brain’s gear shifter, it helps you shift attention and recognize errors. Higher activity in the ACG increases the tendency to get stuck on negative thoughts or negative behaviors and to see what is wrong rather than what is right. It is also one of the brain’s worry centers. More activity here translates into more worries. Of course, this doesn’t mean that men don’t worry or see problems. But men and women tend to worry differently.
5. Visual and coordination centers work harder in men.
These areas of the brain are more active in men and may explain why men tend to be more adept at judging distances and making a beeline to where they parked the car.
6. Women’s intuition is real.
Other brain imaging research reveals that females have larger areas in the brain dedicated to tracking gut feelings, specifically areas deep in the frontal lobes called the insula and ACG. The female brain is generally quicker at assessing the thoughts of others based on limited information, gut feelings, and hunches.
7. Serotonin systems work differently in men and women.
Production of the neurotransmitter serotonin is 52% higher in men than in women, according to a foundational brain imaging study in PNAS. A calming neurotransmitter, serotonin plays a role in mood, sleep, pain, and other issues. At Amen Clinics, low serotonin levels are often seen in people with depression, anxiety, pain syndromes, and obsessive worrying.”
@@melinaathena You are sexist. This has been debunked by science that what you say is sexist. Listen, I would love if this was the truth. Men would stop dragging us to stupid war because they are too emotional (anger, impulsivity, etc). But unfortunately it’s not.

Probably. As many as men. But given the messed up world we live in, those people are the really intelligent ones. Plus they can also raise dogs.

I just want a husband who’s richer than me and as smart as me. For practical reasons, I have no use for someone smarter than me if he’s incapable of making (significantly) more than me.
Besides, I know a few intelligent women that married down. Their husbands are idiots and it’s hard to take them seriously after the sex fizzles out. They’re all getting divorced.
